To Our Readers.

We cannot too st. )ngly urge upon
our readers the necessity of snbscrib-
ing for family weekly newspaper
of the first class-such, for instance,
as the Independent, of New York.
Were we obliged to select one publ
cation for habitual and careful read
ing, to the exclusion of all others,
we should choose unhesitatingly the
Independent. II is newspaper,
magazine and review, all in one. 1t
is religious, literary, an educa-
tional, story, an art, a scientific,
an agricultural, a financial and a
political paper combined. 1t has 80
folio pages and 81 departments. No
matter what PERSONS religion, pol
itics or profession may be, no matter
what the age, sex, employment or
condition may be. the Independent
will prove help, an instructor, an
educator. Our readers can do no
less than to send a postal for free
specimen copy, or for thirty cents
the paper will be sent month, en-
abling one to judge of its merits
more critically. Its yearly subscrip-
ton is $500, or two years for $500.
Those who desire to subscribe for
the American Agriculturist, as well
as the Independent, cannot make a
better bargain than by accepting
the Independents offer to send both
papers for one year for the sum of
1915. Each subscriber will thus
save seventy-five cents ON the two
papers. Address, The Independent,

Railroad News and Notes.

Coke shipments from the mines at
Clements have been commenced.
Business all along the line is steadi-
ly increasing.
The new schedule has not been
the means of bringing trains in on
time, as we hoped, but no one is in
clined to complain. The business
makes it almost impossible to keep
the trains just on the dot.
Speaking of the preliminary sur
vey of the route for the branch rail
road into this section projected by
the Ohio River r. r. Co., the Clarks
burg Ne,cs says it is glad to learn
that the engineers are meeting with
an exceedingly cordial reception all
along the line. Rights of way and
the sentiments of the people have
much to do in the consumation OF
proposed plans for the building OF
this competing road.

leave, and seeing that he did not
intend to go, Miss Ada, saying she
wanted to have chicken for dinner,
brought out shot gun, loaded it in
FRONT of the fellow, and taking aim
at a chicken knocked it's head off at
